CDV's 3D action adventure Project Nomads takes place in a fantastic world set high up in the clouds. This wonderful visual and free-flowing adventure, in which the gamer flies around the remains of the world once known as the Earth and now only consists of huge floating islands in the clouds. Nomads Goliath, John and Susi will either have to face obstacles caused by the weather or, on the good days, will profit from it: while "normal clouds" have barely any influence on the course of the game, the 3D volumetric clouds are a new and central feature in the game. The gamer can hide his protagonist or flying units within these clouds! Take a look for yourself!
Put on your raincoat and go!
